[Haskell-cafe] Can't install chp (confused by cabal yet again)

[Michael Steele]

You got the original error because cabal chose to use base-3 when compiling
chp, and then identifiers found only in base-4 were referenced.
Download the cabal package, and edit chp.cabal so that it depends on base >=
4.
